Basketball Rutgers Basketball falls to Penn State, 61-46

[RAC93]

It is pointless to single out players with criticism at this point……….THEY ALL SUCK IN THEIR OWN UNIQUE WAY!!!!!!

 

[RUBlackout]

I have seen enough. These players truly are TERRIBLE..no bball IQ...stand around and no movement on offense...cant shoot the easiest shot out there..not the FT rather the layup

When I take a step back this is ALL on coaching!! You need to make the most out of what you have(you did recruit them here). We have zero offensive strategy

 

[runner3283]

He can't be on the court for a close game where he could end up taking FTs.

X10000

There should be boos in the crowd tonight idc that they are college kids. They all get paid, most of the boos should be directed to Pike for this horrendous team he put together. “This is an 85 point team” yeah okay and the world is flat.

 

[Mr Magoo]

Pike presser: "Don't worry help is on the way. I promise this time"

Good luck with that Trying to win with two freshman future NBA players and nothing else.

 

[RUby RED]

35% from the field
7% from 3
50% from the FT line

…and the worst part is it doesn’t feel like an anomaly. Just a disgustingly bad offensive team

ROCK BOTTOM FOR THE LAST FIVE YEARS. Tell me again “at least this isn’t Littlepage or Jordan”

 

[biazza38]

That literally couldn’t be more untrue. Up until Cameron went out we were entirely a half field team. We didn’t run at all.

We were abysmal in conference play and were sleep walking against UMD, PSU, and OSU. Started down 5-0 against UMD and couldn’t get a quality look off

Pike presser: "Don't worry help is on the way. I promise this time"

Maybe

 

[RutgersChow]

Unfortunately when you lose your 2 starting guards this is the result. Noah is clearly not the player Pike thought he was getting and Simpson has not developed which doesn’t help either.

It's your job to know and it's your job to develop. You're failing at both.

 

[Plum Street]

Maybe it's just me, but that doesn't move the needle in my world. Number two, even if I saw it, I'd venture to say the Carli Lloyd spot would trounce the PSU ad because...well..I'm a RU fan. What side of the fence are you on here?

Found it informative

 

[rucoe89]

500th layup at least tapped in

I don't think Rutgers is coached to use the Glass.

Ever been to Kansas?

 

[Degaz-RU]

In a pantheon of bad basketball that we’ve all seen on the Banks, this game takes the prize for the most awful performance I’ve ever seen.

I am just STUNNED by the gross incompetence of this team.

 

[koleszar]

Announcer, "Penn St. brought their defense on the road for the first time this year." No, more like they just played Rutgers, the antidote for anyone's defensive woes.

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

@Richard Schnyderite please press Pike on why Hyatt and Mag were picking so many splinters this game.

 

[RUFanlivingNC]

NOAHFERNANDES whyyyyyyyyyy​

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

OUT-HUSTLED ALL NIGHT

 

[RUby RED]

Team hasn’t won a 50/50 ball all night

 

[Scangg]

Now Mag back in?

 

[Mr Magoo]

It’s literally like our players don’t have fingers

 

[AdventureHasAName]

The only two people on the court tonight who looked like major college basketball players were Cliff and Davis (and that's only because they are so athletic that they still are impressive on defense even though they look like they've never practiced offensive basketball in their lives).

 

[FmrMgrRU]

Good thing we won that bidding war for Mag

 

[RUFanlivingNC]

@Richard Schnyderite please press Pike on why Hyatt and Mag were picking so many splinters this game.

Ask him why he felt Noah deserves playingtime

 

[newell138]

I’m amazed so many people are still there

 

[robjknight]

That play says it all . Five players couldn't bring the ball in and PS gets an easy 2.

 

[RUSCFORMERLYRULOU]

I’ve said this for a while. Pike is an average overall coach. He can get teams fo play hard and play some good defense but can’t coach offense, and had flunked recruiting new players and re recruiting his own players. No innovation. No feel for substitutions. I’ve said this for years. Unless we win and win big next year, it’ll be a slow walk until he too is fired.

 

[fluoxetine]

I hate this shitty team.

 

[RUTrack94]

Thought we’d limit 15 point losses to road games … not home games vs 9-11 teams.

Potential good news is the price of tickets will continue to drop.

Battle for the basement vs Michigan coming up!!!!

 

[Caliknight]

Penn St gave up 52 points at home last game.

In a half

 

[The RUT]

Honestly thank God Schiano is back, back to being a football school

 

[koleszar]

Now they're just getting embarrassed. Pike should be ashamed of what he's put on the court. He gets paid enough money to not fvck up like this.

 

[RutgersChow]

I've been saying it for a couple of years - nice guy, says all the right things, a good face for the program, can't coach a lick.

 

[RUBlackout]

Noah is not smart...no sense of urgency!!! Down by double digits lets run hot clock down...wtf

Sorry this is all on PIke...he allows this shit to happen

 

[PhillyRU]

Screw it man Fire Pike this is absolutely ridiculous. And screw me for letting such an awful, awful team get me so angry

 

[desairos]

We really took Caleb, Ron, Paul, and co for granted getting every loose ball

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

What did Simpson just do

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

Team hasn’t won a 50/50 ball all night

poor hand-eye coordination and weak

 

[Mr Magoo]

Simpson …lmao. High school player
